.ts file recorded by MP RC2 from DVB-T Freeview HD New Zealand 1080i

MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service

Size = 10mb

Also : are you sure that MP is using the MPC stand alone filter, if i just register the filter on its own, then remove all other h264 codecs i cant play h264 files anymore. I think when you set MP to MPC codec, it actually ends up using one of the other codecs.

Thanks, i will try it.

Yes, i am sure about it, i dont have any other h264 codecs installed.

thanks...

but you have pdvd8 codec installed as per your original post, so how do you know it is using MPC filter and not PDVD8 filter?

I update my package, now you can choose TV type - HD/Full HD.

I do not think it is related to your program (have seen this when trying to install newer version of e.g. windvd (version 8). But just could not resist asking it in this thread

Sorry, i have no personal experience with nVidia cards.
You got "gray screen" only when playing HD video ? Or XVid/DivX too?

It is working when you choose MPC Video decoder?

Hi Hoborg,
only when playing recorded .TS format (mpeg2) or watching TV (is the same format). When using xvid/divx MP defaults back to ffdshow.
MPC Video decoder is not choosable, this is only in the list of H.264 decoders?
thanks again,
Ruud.

If you want to know vhat filters are in use - run MP in Window mode, start some video with subtitles.
You will see DirectVobSub icon down - right click and you will see something like this:

SAF v4.00 ''stable'' (StandAlone Filters) - DXVA ready (H.264 and VC-1).-inusefilters.png

Thats is list of in use filters.

I think the best way is to disable these formats directly in FFDshow.

Yes, i am sure about it, i dont have any other h264 codecs installed.

Well i did some testing and i found that:

MP have its own ts reader - "TsReader.ax", so Haali have no efect on it.
In log file, i have this error "2008-09-16 14:23:49.812500 [ERROR][MPMain]: TSReaderPlayer:GetInterfaces() failed"
So, maybe this is some MP isue/bug, try to report this to MP team.

MPC HC handle your file without any problem.

***UPDATE***

Rename *ts to *mp4 or *mkv - this will disable MP internal "TsReader.ax" and make Haali to handle your video. Now it works! So this must be an MP issue!

See my post Playing recorded *.TS files does't work with internal "TsReader.ax" to the reason why it doesn't work ;-)

You claim that the MPC video decoder does DXVA and is working perfect in MP. I tried registering this codec myself and selected it, but MP falls back onto PDVD8.

Codec selection has never been 100% in MP's config and often falls back on highest merit windows system default, which in your case is PDVD, I did my testing with PDVD uninstalled.
